i can’t believe saying “cow milk is for baby cows” is more controversial than humans forcibly impregnating cows, keeping them in horrible conditions, injecting them with hormones, taking their babies away once they’re born, and then stealing their milk to bottle and sell for a completely different species to drink.

Inability to accept the mystic experience is more than an intellectual handicap. Lack of awareness of the basic unity of organism and environment is a serious and dangerous hallucination. For in a civilization equipped with immense technological power, the sense of alienation between man and nature leads to the use of technology in a hostile spirit—-to the “conquest” of nature instead of intelligent co-operation with nature.
